If you have suffered a back injury as a result of a fall at work, or because your work requires you to do heavy lifting, pushing or pulling, particularly when it involves twisting or vibrating your spine, you may be entitled to claim back injury compensation.

A desk job may also cause or contribute to back injury, especially if you have poor posture at your desk or sit still all day in an uncomfortable chair.

If your work involves twisting or lifting improperly, you may sustain sprains in your ligaments which can cause you either short-lived or chronic pain.

A back injury causes pain that range from constant ache to a sudden, sharp pain that comes on quickly and leaves you just as quickly. Chronic pain may come on quickly or slowly and may linger for a long time.

Many diseases can also cause or contribute to back pain. If you had an accident at your workplace which resulted in or contributed to your back injury, your employer will only be held responsible for the work related damage to your back.
